- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 67-year-old man with treatment-resistant mycosis fungoides (MF), successfully treated with combined chlormethine gel and low-dose radiation therapy (RT) in addition to extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP). Topics discussed include the efficacy and safety of chlormethine gel in MF treatment, the use of low-dose RT in tumour-stage MF, and the potential benefits of combining chlormethine gel with other treatment modalities like ECP.
